I mean GDC did design for there to be contact during the game after all...

Strategies aimed at and/or game play resulting in the damage, 
destruction or inhibition of opponent HUMANS via actions 
such as high-speed or repeated, aggressive ramming, 
attachment, tipping, or entanglement of HUMANS are not allowed.

Violation: FOUL. If strategic, TECHNICAL FOUL. Potential YELLOW CARD.

This sounds super fun. I'd be in if it wasn't super far away.

Someone in MI should do a similar event!

Perhaps everyone should be required to wear silly looking bumpers? No contact outside the bumper zone.

I can't imagine trying to ref human matches...this may be one game that humans could be better at than robots. I suppose you could test it with a no defense allowed match human vs robot match, split the field down the middle, left half is robots, right is humans. Perhaps handicap the humans by taking away their ability to move in auton?

You know those big sumo suits would be perfect for a human version of the game............

These would be more suited for the human version of the game.

This video just changed my life. Also, this should definitely be included in the human matches!

Team 456 is very interested in coming to this event but it is quite a distance from Vicksburg, MS. If we come we will only be able to bring a small crew. Would you please expand on what you mean by “Teams will be required to have multiple drive teams and multiple robot repair teams that alternate throughout the event.”? Is there some minimum number of team members required to compete? Will teams be required to have separate drive teams and pit crews or is overlap required? Will teams be required to swap drivers/pit crews every, say, 6 hours or was this statement more of a suggestion?

In an effort to keep everyone safe during the event, we highly recommend that every member get at least 3-4 hours of rest every 8-10 hours of working on, or driving, the robot.

Thanks Matt. We will discuss more with the team and make a decision ASAP. It sounds like a great event and we know we would have a lot of fun!

This is quite the event... Hehe i wish it was local.... I can hear all the students going yay and all the mentors moaning a little.

You will probably want a filler lines since if a team only has about 20-30 mins between matches you might get a lot of no shows due to repair/damage issues.

I'M SOOOOO PUMPED FOR THIS, after i saw a doc on 24 hr of Le Mans, i have wanted to try this.

HOPE YALL HAVE A GOOD PLAYLIST

[Kimmeh]

If anyone from Michigan decides to head out to this, and has room for an extra person, send me a pm please.

I'm definitely interested, I'm just not overly interested in making the trip out by myself.

Also, I'll be back in school then. Depends on what my schedule looks like then.
